Putting aside the requirements themselves (which are BS for a majority of beneficiaries because they are working)...

Not only do they not care; they actively want people to be discouraged and confused by, or even entirely unaware of, these requirements. The requirements are hard to fulfill on purpose.

Yeah. “Keep Doing the Same Shit People Already Hate Them For” turned up to 11 is basically what got Trump in the office.

That is the same as the Democrat’s strategy too; do stuff the donors want, and not change anything for fear that the few voters they might lose will not be outweighed by the chunk they stand to gain if they did change.

You are right. they already own all three branches of the federal govt, and most of the states’ legislatures.

People don’t like GOP policies, but keep them in office, because they think Kaepernick hates the troops, Obama is trying to start a race war, and Democrats want to turn the country into Venezuela and take all the guns. So, these constant red-meat issues allows them to implement their benefactor’s policies. The…

I get this bad feeling they’re not changing their tune because they know they’ll win anyways....

No legislative body in any G20 nation/authority will ever let this idea come to fruition, not (mainly) as a result of lobbying or external pressure, but from personal I-got-mine-and-f’-off-you-peasants greed.

That’s a great plan, HamNo. Will these employees be sharing in the companies losses as well?

That dividend rate seems nearly worthless.

Why can’t workers just negotiate an equity stake when they agree to work for the company?

God you Bernie types are awful. Always crying about the wealth gap while using all the products and services that create it.

According to what I’ve read so far, the teacher and at least one police transcript indicated that what happened isn’t legally defined as abuse under state law (and I truly believe he KNEW this), yes? I’ll look these up again since it was late at night, but I got the impression that more than one person did want to…

Was about to post this video. How and why has everyone forgotten/forgiven what a fucking creep Biden is?

I’ts pretty clear that Creepy Joe doesn’t get what sexual harassment is.

taking responsibility isn’t really a strong suit for politicians. They only take credit.

Uhhhh... what?  First of all, Hillary won the popular vote.  Second, Bernie is part of that “previous-generation,” he’s just trying to spin himself as something fresh, which is a total lie anyways.  He’s been sitting up in VT doing nothing for decades and all of a sudden now, because of him, we should scrap everything…
